·AIM: To investigate the antiangiogenic effects and safety of topically administered low -molecular-weight heparin taurocholate 7 (LHT7) on corneal neovascularization (CoNV). Twenty -four Sprague -Dawley rats were

randomly distributed into four groups of six rats each. The central corneas were cauterized using a silver/ potassium nitrate solution. From 2d after cauterization, 12.5 mg/mL (low LHT7 group) or 25 mg/mL (high LHT7 group) LHT7 was topically administered three times daily; 12.5 mg/mL bevacizumab was topically administered as positive control (bevacizumab) group, with normal saline (NS) administered as negative control (NS group). The corneas were digitally photographed to calculate the CoNV percentage from the neovascularized corneal area at 1 and 2wk.

· RESULTS:

The 4 study groups did not have different

CoNV percentages at 1wk after injury ( >0.05). However, the low LHT, high LHT, and bevacizumab groups had significantly lower CoNV percentages than the NS group at 2wk (all 0.05). All groups except the NS group had lower CoNV percentages at 2wk postinjury than the levels observed at 1wk (all
